Google carefully, how many people die of other diseases/ viruses ?
Know we must worry about some shit that we have 3 cases of without death.

How was the riding the weekend boys, how where the braais and the kuier afterwards.
Lets go forward, not backward

My understanding is that Corona is a big problem because of how easily it is transmitted, so basically it is super infectious. That's how it differs from normal flu etc.

Yip, much more contagious than SARS, for example, but not nearly as lethal.

?Can we not genetically cross it with EBOLA?

Ask the Chinese they seem to be very good at making new deadly viruses.

 

[Rossnij]

Just let everyone get it and get it over with. They need to stop this fear mongering in the press.

 

[Naughty Ian]

You are correct, the press blows everything way out of proportion

 

[BULL]

I "suffer" from the Castle virus. Man is it contagious.

 

[FHM_V]

Supplier can give us a few more, was a cancelled order. Now $8000 US. Each.
Daphuq!!!
Apparently, all equipment in china now kept for their domestic market and the suppliers need to sell at CTC, to save local jobs etc. They may not export, until further notice. Certain industries, not sure if FMCG and textiles are affected. I can only speak for machines.


I know that some liquor brands gonna shit, their stuff comes from china, watch this space. The cnuts never declared the CoO on their label. I warned them, years ago to do it. They only have enough bulk for a few more months, better stock up on your favourite crap.

large groups of people gathering is identified as a possible issue to increase the spread so a lot of major running races have been cancelled

Thankfully enduro events are small and localised so should be ok but ya it is a worry for world events like WESS etc. Supercross cancelled now as well

Hopefully TOM isn’t effected as I don’t see it being a viable option for them to reschedule anytime this year.

The entire Everest climbing season is cancelled. A country who is majority based on tourism around the mountains, people living on the breadline earning off a trekking season will have to go subsistence for the next year...

See the KTM factory is closing as well for a bit due to Corona amid possible supply chain delivery issues due to parts that are manufactured in Italy and as a precaution
